Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
She held her breath (breath)
Thought catalyzed the panic
Incandescent death hiding just beneath the epidermis
"Oh, not again," she thought
She'd told them she was just like them
And for a decade, she was
There is a desperation in the irises of her eyes
The marks from all the years that terror kept her whole
She learns the movements
And she doesn't bat an eye when they break
All her brittle bones anymore
This is all I have to be
Obscure the fractured self
With practiced legitimacy
When it kills me, I won't mind
There will be no difference on the inside
(Oh, oh, oh)
She got away (way-ay-ay)
Too burnt to feel the damage
Months into days
And the fear she felt at those around her
"Never the same," she thought
Empathy blurred into something
More than she could take, so she ran
There is a desperation in the irises of her eyes
The marks from all the years that terror kept her whole
She learns the movements
And she doesn't bat an eye when they break
All her brittle bones anymore
This is all I have to be
Mutilate the soul under
The lie of cold necessity
When it kills me, I won't mind
There will be no difference on the inside
ย
It hasn't changed
The terror hasn't gone away
But when she's safe
For a moment, she knows
She peels away
A tiny piece of all the noise she's built up to survive
And it's so...
ย
This is all I want to be
Lost between the years
The static swallowed all belief in safety
I can't tell if I'm alive
But something feels different on the inside
(Ooh, ooh, ooh-oh)
"Let's try that again..."
